PERFORMANCE PERCUSSION LAUNCHES ELECTRONIC DRUM KIT

The new PP900E ELECTRONIC DRUM KIT from PP Drums (Performance Percussion) features all the equipment laid out as you’d expect on a conventional acoustic kit; four drum pads, kick drum and pedal, two cymbal pads, with hi-hat cymbal pad and control pedal. This allows the kit to be arranged in what could be considered ‘standard’ format, because the basic tubular skeleton carries mountings for the drum pads and cymbals. Also supplied with the kit's fully adjustable frame are three cymbal booms, all connecting cables, power supply, drumsticks and instructions.

The mountable Digital Drum Module offers a choice of 215 high quality voices, along with 20 preset kit sounds. And while the unit’s memory lets you save your favourite settings, ten ‘user defined’ kit voices are also available, with an additional 50 preset songs to play along with, as well as a very necessary and practical Click Track/Metronome facility. Via the module, the player has control over these settings, plus straightforward Volume, Tempo and Tap controls which can be monitored visually on the module’s LED display.

The PP900E module offers a MIDI out facility too, with normal outputs for hooking up to a PA or desk. Plus you can plug headphones in for personal practice, (particularly at home where the kit is especially effective and noise pollution-friendly!) either with the kit itself, or via the Aux In where you can feed in songs from an external source, CD, mp3, etc.

The PP Drums PP900E elecronic drum kit retails at £449.00.
